For music lovers, there may be nothing better than going to see a live show. With concerts starting to come back, many will soon get to experience that feeling again, and apparently there are some animals that want in on the action too. A video went viral recently showing a group of lemurs enjoying some live music, played by an 11-year-old girl in an alligator costume.

As seen in the viral clip, a girl dressed in an alligator costume plays the piano surrounded by a group of lemurs, who seem to be enjoying the show. The video comes from the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand. According to boingboing.net, the 11-year-old girl plays weekly concerts for the lemurs as they relax and eat.

Many online were surprised by how close the lemurs got to the musician. “I don't mind. It's as if they're playing music with me too,” said Seenlada Supat, the 11-year-old zoo volunteer. Hopefully in the next video, there is an explanation for the alligator costume.
